The days when I am farming in the last days

Living in the countryside, it seems that there is no leisure all year round, and there is always endless work to do.

After planting the corn, I just breathed a sigh of relief. The sweet potato seedlings in the field have been bred, and I will continue to plant sweet potatoes.

Because the rainwater and fertilizers are sufficient, under careful care, the sweet potatoes grow seedlings about half a meter long. They can be cut into palm-length sections with scissors at an angle, and they can survive directly by cutting them.The foundation for raising seedlings is only about two square meters, but the cut seedlings can be planted on two acres of land.

Because the land was plowed in advance, a lot of effort was saved. The family planted all the sweet potato seedlings from morning till night.The old sweet potatoes used for raising seedlings in the base were turned out, because a lot of nutrients had been sucked away, and they became very hard.

But Mama Tang took it home anyway, and chopped it up to feed the pigs.

After planting sweet potatoes, we will plant peppers and tomatoes the next day.The seedlings of these two crops were cultivated in temporary greenhouses and grew quite well. If they were not planted in the afternoon, the nutrition in the greenhouse would not be able to keep up.

And after planting these two things, I haven't been idle.The green beans and cowpeas in the field have grown to exceed human knees, and it is time to build a shelf for it to climb, otherwise the bean sprouts will grow on the ground crawling, and it is impossible to have a good harvest.

Finger-thick wooden sticks or thin bamboo poles as tall as a person, in groups of three or four, are inserted obliquely along the direction of bean seedling growth, and then put together in mid-air, tightly tied with straw, which is a shelf. .

This job looks simple, but it is very troublesome when you actually do it.

Jiang Dai wore gloves and inserted a few wooden sticks, feeling a slight pain in her palms.I took off the gloves and saw that it was blistered.

"A student who is useless is a scholar." After coming to this village, Jiang Dai's understanding of this sentence became more and more profound.As for her original major, there is almost no room for her to use it here. It is a bit like the legendary "Dragon Slaying Skill"-very awesome, but there is no room for use.

She put on the glove silently, pretending nothing happened, and continued to insert the next one.It's just that speed and efficiency are inevitably affected.Fortunately, there were so many people, her movements were not fast, but no one noticed.

It's still early when the shelves are set up for a piece of land.

A group of people walked back, and they could always see various flowering plants on the road.In normal times, Jiang Dai is always very interested in these things, and often picks a bouquet of flowers and takes them home to decorate the house.But today, she didn't have much energy, and the burning pain in her palm took up most of her attention.

"What's the matter?" Tang Han walked beside her, asking with some concern.

"It's okay." Jiang Dai shook her head slightly.

Tang Han guessed that she was tired, so he looked around and saw a large clump of wild roses growing in front of him, so he walked over to search for a while, and picked two young twigs that had just sprouted.They call this thing "thorn moss". Judging from the standard of snacks, it is easy to get and has a large amount, so it is very popular.

She peeled off the thorny skin on the outside, gave one to Ozawa, and handed the other to Jiang Dai, "Try it?"

Jiang Dai took a bite and thought it tasted good.It should be said to be very special, different from vegetables and fruits, with a little plant-specific aroma and sweetness, and a unique taste.

But after eating the extra meal, she didn't see her mood improving.

Tang Han scratched his head, feeling that the problem seemed a bit serious.She couldn't figure it out for a while, so she could only figure out Jiang Dai's preferences, and use her way to relieve her emotions.

She quickly found a dead branch among the thorns beside the road and broke it off.On this dry branch, there were thorns slightly thicker than needles. Tang Han picked the prickly pear flowers and tied them one by one on the thorns, and soon artificially created a very bright flower.

"This is for you." She handed the flower to Jiang Dai, "Does it look good?"

Jiang Dai reached out to take it, looked around, nodded, and said softly, "It's very beautiful, thank you."

She thanked her so earnestly, but Tang Han felt a little uncomfortable, "It's a random thing. Are you... feel better? I think you are not in a good mood, is it because you are not feeling well?"

"That's right." Jiang Dai smiled, and stretched out her hand to show Tang Han, "This looks inconspicuous, but it really hurts."

It was very strange, she felt that she had been trained in the past few months, but she put on airs today and found that she was still far behind.What is usually assigned to them is already the lightest work.

Tang Han frowned when he saw her palm.

Two blisters have been worn on it, and the larger one has been worn out, which looks very scary.Jiang Dai was so silent, she went to the well to wash her hands just now, it's strange that it didn't hurt.

Tang Han felt very painful when he judged others by himself. He subconsciously picked up this hand, put it next to his mouth and blew lightly.

Jiang Dai seemed to be scalded, and withdrew her hand back with a "swish".

My palms were so hot that they were about to burn.

Tang Han was taken aback by her reaction, and then realized that his gesture was a little too intimate, and quickly tried to change the subject, "I'll pick it up when I go back, so apply some medicine. Otherwise, it will be even more uncomfortable tomorrow."

"Okay." Jiang Dai hid her hands by her side, and subconsciously wanted to make a fist, but this posture would affect the wound on her hand, so she had to spread her palms again.

In the end, she raised her hand up in despair, and took two breaths to blow away the previous feeling of touch.

……

The farming season is always about the same every year. Tang's parents and mothers are very experienced. When they are busy with these things, the rainy season will arrive.

Although it was raining at night, it was sunny again during the day, so there was no delay in doing things.

With the nourishment of the rain, the crops in the field and the plants in the forest all twitch like crazy and grow up quickly.The crops in the field are almost the same every day.

In the mountains, various berries are gradually ripening.

The most popular among children is undoubtedly the raspberry. The local name is Hongqier, and there are also raspberries. Mr. Lu Xun wrote in "From Baicaoyuan to Sanwei Bookstore".

Of all the berries, this one is the sweetest.And things are also cheap, and you can see them everywhere on the roadside.

In addition to the red strawberries, there are also white strawberries in the local area. This should be a kind of wild strawberry. Except for the smaller size, it is no worse than the strawberries sold on the street.In addition, there are crows, which are more like vines, always growing in clusters, and when the berries are ripe, you can find a cluster and you will be full.

Both of these mature a little later.

Because Jiang Dai is currently a "wounded person", Tang's mother didn't let her go to the field with her, and simply stayed at home to look after the children.When it wasn't raining, Jiang Dai led Ozawa, and the two of them went to the mountain with a bowl to pick red bean sprouts. When they got a full bowl, they took it home and shared it with everyone.

In addition to berries, mushrooms, fungus and wild bamboo shoots can also be picked on the mountain, which greatly enriches the dining table at home.

Living like this every day, you can find some small surprises from time to time. Sometimes, people will completely forget all kinds of wind, rain and noise outside.However, it is not invisible, those things no longer exist, the epidemic is still expanding, and the impact is getting worse and worse.

Finally, after a power outage one night, the power was not restored in time the next day.

Neither did the third day.

The epidemic has finally affected people's livelihood industries, and even this kind of basic living security cannot be avoided, which means that the government has almost lost control of the situation.

Panic is certain.

Even this small village, which seemed to be isolated from the world, caused a huge commotion.The villagers, who usually seemed to be hiding somewhere, came out of their homes, greeted each other, talked about the sudden change, and talked about what the next situation would be like.

As for the Internet, it's almost messed up.

This is not a power outage in one place at a time, but a large area of ​​the country has stopped.First the remote areas, then the suburbs, and finally the ordinary residential areas in the city.The government cannot guarantee full power supply, so it simply concentrates manpower and material resources to supply the most urgently needed electricity.

This choice is understandable to everyone, but it is difficult to accept.

The impact of no electricity is too great. For many people, they may not even be able to cook their meals without electricity. How can they live in this day?

And now it's just a power outage. Is the next step going to be disconnection, and the next step?No water?Now is the quarantine period, and everyone is trying their best not to go out, just to control the epidemic.But there is nothing at home, not even drinking water, so they can only be trapped to death?

Fortunately, these situations have probably been planned.When the panic spread, local governments quickly introduced countermeasures: in general, including water, electricity and mobile networks, all of them adopted a zonal rationing system.In the next quite a long period of time, residents' water and electricity consumption will be specific to every hour of the day.Staggering the use time in this way can ensure that everyone has water and electricity available to the greatest extent.

All in all, the situation seemed bad, but not unacceptably bad.

Moreover, people's happiness is compared. Compared with the various states of chaos caused by the complete loss of control of foreign governments, the domestic situation is already very good.At least so far, there has been no smashing and looting on the street.

It's not that no one is tempted, it's just that the criminal who wanted to take the opportunity to get ahead was immediately held down before finishing a vote.Come a few more times, others will naturally have to settle down.

However, these policies have little to do with this small mountain village far away from the city.

——On the third day of the power outage, some villagers took the initiative to go out of the village to check, and found that the landslide caused by the rain had broken a utility pole and cut off the circuit in this area.Presumably, no one will rush to repair this line before the government frees up its hands. Even if the power is distributed here, they will have nothing to do.

Fortunately, everyone is used to the life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, so it should not be a big problem.

That is, in the future, mobile phones will completely become decorations, and you will not even be able to see the time.

However, there seems to be nothing wrong with this.Jiang Dai stuffed her depleted mobile phone into her bag, and said to Tang Han with a smile, "The ancients wrote that 'there is no sun and moon in the mountains, and the year is completely cold'. Is that probably the case?"

Tang Han glanced at the book in her hand, ""A Dream of Red Mansions" is no longer the scene, you should read "Journey to the West" now."

Jiang Dai smiled, ""Journey to the West" is for you to read, I am only suitable for watching "Red Mansion", and I am ready to kill myself with a sword at any time."

Tang Han was speechless, and couldn't help but say after a while, "Are you really not worried? Who knows how long this state will last? One or two days, you can still experience the life of a hermit, but in one or two years, Three years to five years, can you still live forever?"

"Why not?" Jiang Dai asked back.

"Because this place is not suitable for you." Tang Han said firmly, "You can't always be like this."

"But I think this place is very suitable for me." Jiang Dai looked at her, and smiled after a while, "Who knows? Maybe I won't feel tired of this kind of life in a lifetime."

The author has something to say: "Journey to the West" writes in the first chapter: The monkey is in the mountains, but it can walk and jump, eat grass and trees, drink springs, pick mountain flowers, and forage trees and fruits; The roe and deer are friends, and the macaques are relatives; they sleep under the rocky cliff at night, in the cave of Chaoyou Peak.It is really "there is no Jiazi in the mountains, and the year is not known when the cold is gone".

When Tang Han said that he should read "Journey to the West", he was mocking Jiang Dai for comparing herself with a monkey.

Jiang Dai, on the other hand, said that she was the monkey, and she was Third Sister You (this was Tang Han's evaluation of her earlier).
